Commissioning me means you agree to EVERYTHING stated here
PAYMENT
COMMUNICATION
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
DEADLINES AND REFUNDS/CANCELLATIONS
PERMISSIONS AND COPYRIGHT
- Through PayPal only.
- Only pay after I confirm your commission.
- I will send an invoice.
- Full payment is required before I start the commission .
- If total is over $100 USD I am willing to talk about a payment plan.
- All prices listed are baseline (USD).
- Detailed backgrounds will lead to a higher price!
- If you want a character design sheet, please send a commission order with exactly what you want so I can provide a quote!
- Upon sending payment, please note your user and preferred platform to make it easier to identify you (eg. Nikirin_ from Twitter.)
COMMUNICATION
- Communications will be held through email or direct messaging (via Instagram or Twitter).
- I have the right to refuse commissions I am uncomfortable with drawing (eg. 18+, conveying a toxic message.)
- Please ask for changes during the sketch / lineart stage. Any changes asked when I start coloring will not be made.
- Rude / disrespectful / abusive commissioners will have their commission immediately canceled with a refund based on how much of the artwork was completed already.
- Commissioner / Artist may not share each other’s personal & contact details with third parties.
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
- Any mistakes made on my behalf (e.g. misread description, missed a detail, etc) I will correct free of charge. However, if the mistake is as a result of insufficient information, bad reference, or not mentioned to me when I accepted your commission, I am not obliged to correct or change anything for you.
- If you wish to request for a significant change (a mistake that isn’t on my behalf) I may or may not change it for you. If I happen to accept your request, there will be a fee depending on how big the change is (20%-50% of the original price.)
- There will be up to 3 free revisions for character / logo designs. Anything past that will lead to an additional charge depending on complexity.
- Under no circumstances will I ever redraw an entire commission. Please state everything clearly and in full detail when ordering. If you insist on a redraw no matter what, you will have to commission me again.
DEADLINES AND REFUNDS/CANCELLATIONS
- You may set a deadline if you wish, but it must be reasonable. Please keep in mind that I am human. I have classes, work, and occasional wrist pains, so I do not have 24/7 to work on your art piece.
- If you need your finished piece quickly and wish for your commission to be priority, there will be a fee depending on how fast you want it done.
- Please be respectful and have patience.
- Commissioners can receive a full refund if I have not started your commission at all.
- If I have completed the piece already, there are ABSOLUTELY NO REFUNDS.
PERMISSIONS AND COPYRIGHT
- I have full rights over my artwork. Regardless of you being the commissioner, the art belongs to me.
- The commissioner is never permitted to edit, modify, make merchandise, claim credit, or use for advertising. All artworks are personal use only. If you want an artwork for commercial use, there is a fee:
- 1x price, not for commercial use (eg. personal usage, no profit made off of them)
- 1.5x price, commercial use when the artwork is not the bulk of the product (promotional material, CD cover, game assets, social media artwork, etc.) but with visible credit (ie. Nikirin_ watermark in corner)
- 2x price, commercial use when the artwork is not the bulk of the product (promotional material, CD cover, game assets, social media artwork, etc.)
- 3x price, commercial use when the artwork is the bulk of the product (body pillow, postcard, merchandise, etc.)
- If this commission piece is restricted and you do not want me to post anywhere, please say so in the beginning. This will result in a fee of 30% of commission total. These commissions are not permitted to be posted on public websites under any circumstances. If I am not allowed to post the commission, neither are you. Once a commission is made private, it applies to both the artist, and the commissioner.
- If for some reason, you want to “un-private” your commission, just send me a note stating so. However, there are no refunds of the fee.
- If the artwork commissioned by you is to be posted somewhere for personal use (e.g. tumblr, instagram, twitter, etc), please credit me somewhere visible with a link that redirects others back to at least one of my social medias. Captions such as ‘Credits to Nikirin_’ or ‘Credits to Artist’ does not count. You must provide a direct link back to me.
- It is your responsibility to save the image after I have sent you the file(s). I periodically clear my storage, therefore, if you do not save the image, I will not be able to retrieve it for you.
